Former LSU head coach Ed Orgeron is joining Lane Kiffin's staff as a special assistant to recruiting and defense.

According to the term sheet obtained by The Advocate, Orgeron has signed a one-year deal and will be paid $100,000.

The deal, which runs through January 2027, will pay Orgeron $100,000. The former LSU head coach signed it on Wednesday, the day the program announced that he was returning to Baton Rouge to work as a special assistant to recruiting and defense on coach Lane Kiffin’s staff.

Orgeron can coach during games, and he’s expected to be one of the 10 assistant coaches who are allowed to make recruiting trips, according to a report from On3.

That’s a lot of money - in 1990 for an assistant. I guess that’s why they call him “Special Ed”.

Kiffin had to do this to get the rights to hold “Tell the Truth” Mondays.

Nobody takes a job with a place they got fired from for that type of money and demotion. Unless they absolutely loved that place.

Can’t be pumped up enough to have Bebe back.

I really don’t like him coming back. He embarrassed LSU during his traveling roadshow after he was let go. You can’t go home again.

Say what you want, O loves LSU

Best part of this is that he will be allowed to coach during games. I hope that means he’ll be on the sideline. We need that Coach O energy out there during games.

Word is Lame abso fricking lutely hates Baton Rouge. Hates everything about it.

Question is, did coach Quitten just bring in his replacement for when he bolts?

Lets geaux.

Woodward and covid gave him a raw deal. To the idiot who tried to end O on his radio show, "frick you bitch"

It’s not like he needs the money

This is LK doing for another what was done for him. Saban revitalized LK and Sark by putting them on staff. O left in disgrace and wants redemption. This is a beautiful thing and great for the LSU program

Oh hell yeah. This works out well for everyone. Just watch, every season he will be the one to secure one or two big time recruits.

MrKnowItAll•3 days

The royolties from the "Notebook" is worth another $100,00.00 for Coach O.

Load Toad•3 days
